Be sure to look for me, or wear your RC username on your badge so I can find you. I'd love to buy you a beer.

Holey Beer!! Did I read that right, you offered to buy him a beer. :eek1:

If you all haven't heard, Evan and Marc, from Reefcast.com will be at MACNA this year. Not only will they be recording for a podcast, but they may even do a few live shows! They will be doing interviews and creating havoc throughout the tradeshow hall, so be prepared to stop on by their booth to say what's up or just down a few cold ones.

Our booth will be the one with a keg on tap.

I was watching the news today, they said that any kind of liquids are not allowed on airplanes. This includes water for fish and corals. No cologne, water bottles or anything. If you buy something, you should ship it back home.

Right now I think you could still get some items into checked on luggage, but thats questionable at best.

We are trying to get a shipper to come on site to help people out.

 

[melev]

That is really an awesome idea. I was think they should set up a FedEx booth for the attendees to turn to, and get it overnighted.

darn..... so close........ I will be in Las Vegas the week just before the conference.

Oh well........... maybe when it's out west again. (Nothing against Pittsburgh)

Cheers,

I second this idea. It's a great suggestion.
